RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

Description John Sefler 2017-09-14 20:00:20 UTC 
Description of problem:
After implementation of Bug 1319927 - "[RFE] subscription-manager should automatically enable yum plugins" an update to the man page for rhsm.conf is needed for the new [rhsm]auto_enable_yum_plugins = 1 configuration.



Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
[root@jsefler-rhel7 ~]# rpm -q subscription-manager
subscription-manager-1.20.1-1.git.49.12d004d.el7.x86_64


How reproducible:


Steps to Reproduce:
[root@jsefler-rhel7 ~]# grep -B1 auto_enable_yum_plugins /etc/rhsm/rhsm.conf
# Manage automatic enabling of yum plugins (product-id, subsription-manager)
auto_enable_yum_plugins = 1
[root@jsefler-rhel7 ~]# 
[root@jsefler-rhel7 ~]# man -P cat rhsm.conf | grep -A2 auto_enable_yum_plugins
[root@jsefler-rhel7 ~]# 


Actual results:
 no entry in rhsm.conf man page for auto_enable_yum_plugins

Expected results:
 an entry in rhsm.conf man page for auto_enable_yum_plugins

Verified!

[root@dhcp35-121 ~]# subscription-manager version
server type: Red Hat Subscription Management
subscription management server: Unknown
subscription management rules: Unknown
subscription-manager: 1.20.5-1.el7


[root@dhcp35-121 ~]# grep -B1 auto_enable_yum_plugins /etc/rhsm/rhsm.conf
# Manage automatic enabling of yum plugins (product-id, subscription-manager)
auto_enable_yum_plugins = 1


[root@dhcp35-121 ~]# man -P cat rhsm.conf | grep -A2 auto_enable_yum_plugins
       auto_enable_yum_plugins
           When this option is enabled, then yum plugins subscription-manager and plugin-id are enabled every-time subscription-manager or subscription-manager-gui
           is executed.
Comment 4 Shwetha Kallesh 2017-11-10 08:30:03 UTC 
Actually observe a typo in the man page ,
plugin-id should be changed to product-id so moving bug back to new
Comment 6 Shwetha Kallesh 2017-11-29 13:07:18 UTC 
Plugin-id has been changed to product-id,so moving bug to verified state



[root@dhcp35-10 ~]# subscription-manager version
server type: This system is currently not registered.
subscription management server: 2.0.43-1
subscription management rules: 5.26
subscription-manager: 1.20.7-1.el7

[root@dhcp35-10 ~]# grep -B1 auto_enable_yum_plugins /etc/rhsm/rhsm.conf
# Manage automatic enabling of yum plugins (product-id, subscription-manager)
auto_enable_yum_plugins = 1


[root@dhcp35-10 ~]# man -P cat rhsm.conf | grep -A2 auto_enable_yum_plugins
       auto_enable_yum_plugins
           When this option is enabled, then yum plugins subscription-manager and product-id are enabled every-time subscription-manager or subscription-manager-
           gui is executed.
